Clinical Outpacient Services

The Neurosurgical Outpatient Clinics - General Outpatient Clinic, Specialized Outpatient Clinics and Gamma Knife - play an important role in the acute and long-term care of our patients.

In addition to the diagnosis of neurosurgical diseases and the indication for neurosurgical interventions, postoperative follow-up care is also performed at our outpatient clinics. The goal is to achieve the best therapeutic results through optimized treatment concepts, in close consultation with the other departments we work with.

Outside our outpatient clinic hours (Mo-Fr: 9:00 am - 3:00 pm), continuous neurosurgical care is provided 365 days a year by the Emergency Outpatient Clinic of Vienna General Hospital.
